Dana is an excellent instructor. He had a lot of test taking and industry experience. I noticed that the power point and test material references the 5th edition. For example, the reference to Quality Audit which is in the 6th Edition called Quality Assurance. Dana was able to point these out and reduce confusion.

The course content is comprehensive and invaluable! I gained key understandings that I wouldn't have gained studying on my own. The instructor is extremely knowledgeable in PMI and PMP, with expert experience in project management. They made hard concepts easy to access through simplified visuals and ample resources! I am confident that this course has prepared me well to succeed and pass the PMP test. I highly recommend this course.

I had the pleasant opportunity to follow the lessons of Toshal K. for the AWS Cloud Architect Associate, each explanation of the topics in the reference manual was followed by a meticulous investigation through the step-by-step creation of the inherent procedures. Overall, although I have not yet taken the exam, I can call it an extremely satisfying experience thanks to the availability and closeness of all staff members.

Best training ever. Muhammad Faisal was just the best tutor. By the end of 4 days training from zero start I was already achieving over 60 percent and then just had to follow up with the study plan and go ahead with the momentum. Nothing was too much trouble. Extremely supportive tutor who also coached me with the application process and heaps of tips for the exam. I know I am ready and I will come back and let you know when I pass in the next month. for sure.

Dani is a very knowledgeable project manager, with real-life experiences and stories. He was able to take the slides provided by Sprintzeal and know if they were from PMBOK 5 or PMBOK 6, what was enhanced, what was deleted, and apply an example that made sense to the topic. Dani's biggest challenge was the GoToMeeting process and landing back on the slide deck after providing additional information to teach a particular point. It is challenging to teach people on different coasts, but he was able to and respect the time difference.
Review of Sprintzeal: Alex reached out to me and walked me through the entire registration process, answering all of my questions and there were many. I was supposed to have a live class, but because I ended up being the only person that did not cancel they transferred me into an on-line class and have offered an additional class to make up for that. I received my PMBOX 6 book ahead of class and found everything very straight forward. I hope that the three mock tests and assistance in completing my application are as clear and efficient as the rest of this has been.
I have 4 stars for the slide reading and technical challenges to date.
Thank you - Christi

Good Work Sprintzeal! The Course helped me gain deep understanding of the CompTIA Security+. The hand-on approach used by the trainer was very helpful. The trainer was very patient and answered all questions satisfactorily. Really glad to have come across this course from Sprintzeal.

I was lucky to get an excellent trainer. Super knowledgeable and patient. Giving 4-stars only because Sprintzeal comes across as disjointed upon introduction. For example, two sales reps reached out to me at the same time and then I felt passed off. More visibility into who is doing what and their role would be helpful.
